Purple Heart Lyrics
When we signed up for the Army
To a Rangers Company
Armed with M16's
Straight into the war
Then we served under the banner
Clad in US stars and stripes
And on moonless nights
We marched for endless miles
[Pre-Chorus]
Once we were soldiers, once we were young
We have found our peace, we've seen the end
[Chorus]
Fallen in war, we belong to history
Fallen in war sleep six feet below
Heart of the brave, cannot bring me back to life
Fallen in war, still Brothers in Arms
We have fought in distant conflicts
And for all too many years
Seen our friends go down
Wounded, dead, or lost
Know that peace comes at a high price
It may take a thousand lives
And a deep belief
Sacrifice of men
To a Rangers Company
Armed with M16's
Straight into the war
Then we served under the banner
Clad in US stars and stripes
And on moonless nights
We marched for endless miles
[Pre-Chorus]
Once we were soldiers, once we were young
We have found our peace, we've seen the end
[Chorus]
Fallen in war, we belong to history
Fallen in war sleep six feet below
Heart of the brave, cannot bring me back to life
Fallen in war, still Brothers in Arms
We have fought in distant conflicts
And for all too many years
Seen our friends go down
Wounded, dead, or lost
Know that peace comes at a high price
It may take a thousand lives
And a deep belief
Sacrifice of men
[Pre-Chorus]
Once we were soldiers, once we were young
We have found our peace, we've seen the end
[Chorus]
Fallen in war, we belong to history
Fallen in war sleep six feet below
Heart of the brave, cannot bring me back to life
Fallen in war, still Brothers in Arms
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Shining heart beats no more
Buried deep, deep in cold earth
Shallow grave in my motherland
Here I stay, lay in darkness forever
[Chorus]
Fallen in war, we belong to history
Fallen in war sleep six feet below
Heart of the brave, cannot bring me back to life
Fallen in war, still Brothers in Arms
Once we were soldiers, once we were young
We have found our peace, we've seen the end
[Chorus]
Fallen in war, we belong to history
Fallen in war sleep six feet below
Heart of the brave, cannot bring me back to life
Fallen in war, still Brothers in Arms
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Shining heart beats no more
Buried deep, deep in cold earth
Shallow grave in my motherland
Here I stay, lay in darkness forever
[Chorus]
Fallen in war, we belong to history
Fallen in war sleep six feet below
Heart of the brave, cannot bring me back to life
Fallen in war, still Brothers in Arms
